Amy Adams' first major movie role was in 2002's "Catch Me If You Can," with Leonardo DiCaprio.

However, it was Adams' performance in "Junebug," an indie drama released in 2005, which earned both critical praise and an Academy Award nomination. In 2009, Adams also earned an Academy Award nomination for her role as Sister James in "Doubt."

In 2007, Adams showcased her singing and dancing abilities in Disney's "Enchanted." She played a fairy-tale princess trapped in New York City.
